Depending on your location, you may have the following rights regarding your data:
- Right to access — You can request information about what data (if any) we hold about you.
- Right to deletion — You can request that we delete any personal data we may hold. Since we do not collect personal data directly, this primarily applies to data held by third-party services.
- Right to opt out — You can opt out of personalized advertising through Google Ads Settings or by adjusting your browser's cookie preferences.
- Do Not Sell My Personal Information (CCPA) — We do not sell personal information to third parties. Ad personalization through Google AdSense is based on Google's own data collection and can be opted out of as described above.

Data Retention
We do not maintain a user database or store personal information on our servers. Theme preferences are stored locally on your device and can be cleared at any time by clearing your browser data. Third-party cookies are subject to the retention policies of their respective providers (Google, Amazon).
Data Security
Our website is served over HTTPS to encrypt data in transit. We do not store user data on our servers, which minimizes security risk. Product data (prices, ratings) is sourced from publicly available Amazon listings and stored in our database for comparison purposes only.
Children's Privacy
Our site is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will take steps to delete such information.
